balo Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Sorry I can't believe this story until they actually explain which bar they were drugged in Phuket, which hotel, and if they did talk to the police, which police station in Phuket.

FitnessHealthTravel Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 So let me understand this correctly...they said they were raped and robbed but won't say where, by whom or where they were staying... just that it happened. It's amazing what gets published these days. I think they call it FAKE NEWS everywhere else. Isn't there some sort of 'fact checking' anymore before stories get printed? Stories without facts about Thailand are more damaging to this country and it seems to be getting worse. I'm sorry for the couple if it is true, however, if it is they need to expose the places so there can be some sort of investigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dageurreotype Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 On 14/01/2017 at 2:03 PM, geriatrickid said: There would have had to have been some major physical damage and a prior history of infrequent to no anal intercourse. Serious ripping/tearing would have created a state of infection. These men would have been hospitalized in serious condition. It is improbable that minor damage could be identified after a few days had passed. Thai hospitals can be unfriendly and not respectful of sexual assault victims. The lack of empathy and even ridicule discourages victims from seeking help. It's humiliating for male victims. One need only look at the hurtful comments made by some. That being said, most western males, if they were gang banged by unknown assailants, would seek out immediate treatment and demand a preventative course of drugs to reduce the risk of HIV infection. It takes time to culture swabs. A reliable diagnosis of an STI takes days. A young American musician I knew was gang raped on Patong beach and told me he'd scheduled an AIDS test after having been gang raped by a bunch of ladyboys on Patong beach, which if memory serves was/is by no means uncommon. He was straight btw. I agree about the hospitals. Unless I had Bangkok Hospital Gold Card I wouldn't go either. At least they'd stifle their giggles, given the expense.

How can they both be male, the article said they were married . Do you live in a cave??, many countries allow Gay couples to marry, Gerald a man's name, but most short names for Geraldine is Gerry...........at least in the US.

BruceMangosteen Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Ladyboys in Pattaya are not known to gang rape. If anything, the are the victims of middle eastern tourists gang raping them. I'm surprised Phuket is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katana Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 11 hours ago, bannork said: It seems they didn't go to the press till they got back to Belfast so I don't think you'll see anything about this in the Thai media unless Thai Rath have a resident reporter in Belfast! From the Belfastlive article referenced in the OP: "...The police in Phuket just laughed when we reported our attack. It seems that kind of thing happens regularly..." Also the police work hand in hand with the Thai press, calling them to crime scenes for the lurid photos you often see in newspapers. A victim of a crime doesn't have to go to the press to have it reported on as a news story. Update: Looks like the Phuket Gazette has picked up the story now.

It seems quite likely they were out for a good time in a gay bar on New Year's Eve and things got out of control. Who knows what really happened? That's a bit of of a leap in the dark. I wondered when the relevance of them being gay had anything to do with how some people react. It's not like there's loads of sometimes violent ladyboys in Thailand, is there?! Or that gay Thai men could possibly do such things? Far too many presumptions being made - as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be argued than none are, but not here and now. If they picked up some gay Thai males from a gay bar and then didn't pay them, perhaps we have our explanation.
